Answer 1

There is __timeShift() function which allows adding or subtracting arbitrary amount of days, hours, minutes and seconds to/from the current/provided date

Example syntax:

Text version just in case:

- Tomorrow:     `${__timeShift(yyyy-MM-dd'T'hh:mm:ss.SS'Z',,P1D,,)}`
- Week after:   `${__timeShift(yyyy-MM-dd'T'hh:mm:ss.SS'Z',,P7D,,)}`
- etc.
